Wildlife Population Biology - Three semester hours This course outlines processes governing the abundance and distribution of animals and plants, and the consequences for natural resource management. Practical applications lie in wildlife management, sustainable harvesting of resources, pest control and conservation of endangered species. Topics will include mathematical models of population growth, population viability analysis, and metapopulations, dispersal, population harvesting, predation, population cycles, and competition. Prerequisites: Math 142, BSc 335, BSc 336, BSc 307. BSc 412 is strongly recommended.%

Immunology. Three semester hours. This course is designed for majors with a well-rounded background in biology. Therefore, this course provides students with an understanding of basic immunological principles and the functional organization of living systems. Emphasis will be placed on human physiology and the cooperative interplay between innate and acquired immunity. Students are expected to learn the basic principles and concepts of immunology both at the molecular and cellular levels, to learn to reason scientifically, and to understand and describe the function of immune systems in the human body. Prerequisites: BSc 301 and 305.%

3.00 Credits
Reproductive Physiology. Three semester hours. A study of the development and function of the male and female reproductive systems of humans. Prerequisites: BSc 301 and 305.%
-
0.00 - 4.00 Credits
Comparative Vertebrate Anatomy. Four semester hours. (3 lecture, 4 lab) The lecture material in this course explore the evolution of vertebrate structure and design among vertebrate taxa. Emphasis is placed on the integument, skeletal, muscular, digestive, urogenital, respiratory, circulatory and nervous systems. Laboratory dissections, using the dogfish and the cat as models, are used to complement the lecture material.%

Endocrinology. Three semester hours. This course is designed for undergraduate students with a solid background in biology and cell biology. Therefore, this course provides students with a greater understanding of molecular, developmental, and network mechanisms of endocrine function. After a basic introduction of endocrinology and basic mechanisms, emphasis and focus will be placed on individual tissues and their respective hormones including the pituitary, hypothalamus, neurohypophysial, gastrointestinal, pancreatic, adrenal, thyroid and reproductive systems. Students are expected to gain an in-depth understanding of basic principles and concepts of hormones, their various activities and ultimate outcomes including feedback systems. In addition students will continue to learn to reason scientifically, and understand and describe the cooperative function of tissues in this universal system. Prerequisites: BSc 301 and 305.%
-
3.00 Credits
Toxicology. Three semester hours. An overview of the basic science of poisons, including the disposition of chemicals in the body, the role of metabolism in enhancing or reducing their toxicity, mechanisms of toxicity and the effects of toxicants on major organ systems. Prerequisites: BSc 301, 305 and Chem 211.%
